Item Description:
This is a vintage Chinese
Double Dao
, two singled edged sabers housed in the same scabbard and used during the Boxer Rebellion of 1899-1901. It looks to date to the late Qing period, ca. 1900. The sword and the mountings are in
Very Good
condition. The sword is overall 19 inches (48cm) long with a blade length of 13 inches (33cm) for each of the two component blades. Both blades show some gold-colored inlays of dragons. The hilt is cord-wrapped with metal endcaps. The scabbard is wood with a custom finish displaying some Chinese characters in white. It features bronze or brass fittings along its length. The hilt shows a nice patina and little wear. The scabbard shows some scattered small areas of missing finish, and retains
85-90%
original finish. The blades shows a few small nicks, some scratches, and a healthy layer of light oxidation along their length.
